Please Don't Tell My Parents I've Got Henchmen

Better than the second

This book got back to what felt like the actual story. Rather than the random side tracked adventure from the second book. We got back to LA and all of its characters.

Can't wait for the fourth one this month.

Not what I expected, still a lot of fun.

Any additional comments?

I initially passed on this Due to a Lack of the Inscrutable Machine. While the Inscrutable Machine has very little to do with this novel, it's in the same universe, narrated by the same lead character and is just a lot of fun. A large host of new characters are introduced, giving the series a nice boost and many more options for the future. While a lot of character development takes place, it doesn't really seem to slow things down. If you enjoyed the first two, this one is still fun. Perhaps not the best in the series to date, but you're still gonna like it.

Inspired Madness

The third installment of this series is every bit as good as the first and more than makes up for the slight slump in the second.

Enjoyable and entertaining

i find that I greatpy enjoy the stories of this series and was glad our cast returns to their customary antics. I find it good to read a novel about supers that is not infected with the Hollywood need of making everything dark and gritty.

I would recommend this series and only caution that you remember this world is not ours and these are young teens. Realistic? Heck no, but Penny does strike a chord in me from when I was her age. Akward, intuitive and if I was as obtuse as she is at times I don't recall for I was living it, not reading . Enjoy!

Lacking intensity of the series ...

This is the story of Penny Ack trying to become the super hero instead of the super villain.

As you expect, this is not exactly what she wants to do, but she has to try because her parents are some of the most famous heroes.

Penny winds up starting a school club for super powered kids. With this comes the knowledge of what it really means to be a super powered hero or villain. The kids learn what it means to know someones true identity and what it means to keep the secret identity secret.

The narration is great, as it has been been with the previous books.

The story just lacked the hook the others had. I was not pulled into the story and kept on the edge always wondering what was going to happen next.

good book

light hamsters and hamburgers turn the key of light and meaning to unreal the people of the tesseract.

Is it funny and good?

Yes, very funny, nice and sweet to listen to on the road and night for a long time.

Good with little inscrutable machine action

Not much inscrutable machine antics on this one but still mostly interesting. At points I couldn't remember who was who with the introduction of so many supporting character but not bad. The story didn't really have a main arc and the final battle practically came out of nowhere. Still I enjoyed this book for the most part. Much better with the techno lingo than the previous book.

Great series, listen if your a fan.

I am a fan of this series and look forward to more. This 3rd book however wasn't my favorite thus far. I struggled to get through the whole thing but did complete it so I'm caught up for the next book. I hate beating up on series that I like but I won't be doing anyone any favors by not being truthful. It's not a completely bad book and I think fans of the series will find value here but it just didn't do it for me. Sometimes I would find myself lost on who exactly certain people were and certain sections just didn't seem relevant or to really go anywhere important to the main story. Again, if your a fan then give it a shot, maybe you'll be more into than me. I'll pick up the next in series and continue on!

Good continuation

The series is still keeping my attention. Well paced and kinda fun. Nothing special, just a good listen.
